ADA, which is also found in yoga mats and flip flops, has been in the news lately because Subway announced it would be phasing it out of bread sold in U.S. stores.

Archer Farms, Pillsbury and Betty Crocker may contain the chemical.

Dr. David Samadi said the chemical preserves bread and appears to be used for business purposes. He said it’s banned in Europe and Australia.

ADA can reportedly cause respiratory issues and skin irritation if consumed in large doses.

Dr. Samadi is a board-certified urologic oncologist trained in open and traditional and laparoscopic surgery and is an expert in robotic prostate surgery. He is chairman of urology, chief of robotic surgery at Lenox Hill Hospital. He is a medical correspondent for the Fox News Channel’s Medical A-Team.
